Macbook Air M2 2022 - Black Screen but you see it light up. Gives it a dark grayish tone.
Hi, I have a Macbook Air M2 2022 that is updated to Sequoia 15.5. I cannot get the screen to actually display anything but yet it lights up - if that makes sense.
I connected it to an external monitor and did the Command F1 combo to mirror to it, and it works just fine. I did updates via external monitor and that didnt solve anything. Given my laptop is an M2, I believe I cannot reset my PRAM/NVRAM and or do the SMC reset either.
I want to run my laptop in diagnostic's mode, which I have it set up to display onto my external monitor with the laptop closed, its just im using an external Windows keyboard and I cant seem to get it to boot into diagnostics mode. It just goes to the login page. I looked online and it says to do Windows D after restarting to hold and wait for it to boot into diagnostics. Though when I do that, it seems as if my keyboard is not recognized or isnt on while the laptop boots up. Everything is currently connected to a Dell Docking station and not directly to the laptop. I do not have a USBC laptop connector for the keyboard.
What can I do to solve this black screen and what can I do to boot my laptop into Diagnostics Mode if I cannot see the laptop screen itself - given because its "blacked" out.
